LINCOLN, Nov. 22. (Special.) The de
cision of tho supreme court In the caso of
Leroy Hall against tho Crawford Irrigating
company, If adhered to In a future hearing,
will probably bo a deathblow to Irritation
rn Nebraska, in this case tho court held
acccordlng to nn old English law that tho
proprietor of a river bank Is entitled to
havo the stream flow through his land, un
diminished In quantity and unimpaired In
quality.
Tho case In question was begun several
yaars ago by Leroy Hall, who owns a farm
of forty acres and a small (lour mill on
tho Whlto river In Dawes county. Ho
ought to enjoin a company comprised of
a number of citizens of Crawford from ap
propriating tho water of tho river for tin
irrigating cnual. This canal started near
tho western boundary line of Sioux county
and flowed twenty-six miles through terri
tory which was previously arid and prac
tically worthless as farm 'land. Hefnre the
canal was built land along the course was
Valued nt $1.60 per acre; now It Is valued
at from J 10 to J50 per acre. The canal
furnished water for Irrigating purposes to
Fort lloblnson and to the town of Craw
ford. Tho owner of tho mill, which was
located about thirty miles below the point
wlicro tho canal started, claimed that the
flow of water was greatly diminished by
reason of tho appropriation of water by
tho Crawford company. The trial court
decided that ho should be granted an In
junction against tho further appropriation
of this water and tho supreme court has
upheld the decision.

Tho three secretaries of tho Stato Board
of Transportation will probably fllo a mo
tion In tho supremo court for a rehearing
of tho caso of tho State of Nebraska against
the nurllngton railroad. In which tho court
yestorduy rendered nn opinion declaring tho
transportation coinmlstlon; unconstitu
tional. The rules of tho court allow forty
days from tho time a decision Is given
for filing a motion for a re-hearing, and It
the secretaries take ndvantago of this rulo
they will bo entitled to salary until the
expiration of their terms. Deputy Attorney
General Oldham held a consultation with
the thrco secretaries today and this courso
of procedure was practically agreed upon.
Lawyers conccdo that there Is hut little
likelihood of obtaining a reversal of tho
judgment and If the motion for n rehearing
Is proscntcd to the court In the name, of tho
stato It will bo for tho solo purpose of en
abling the secretaries to draw salary for
tho month of December.
The decision of the court In tho trans
portation case wan not a surprtso to per
sona who followed tho argument and It Is
said that the two state's attorneys ex
pected an opinion of tho sort that was
given. The supremo court decision Is'slmi
lar to that given In tho federal court In
Omaha by Judge Munger several months
ago.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Nov. 22. United
States Senator James K. Jones, chairman ot
the democratic national committee, epent
tho day In Little Rock and left tonight for
Washington. Beforo leaving he said In an
Interview:
The election result was a great surprise
to all democrats. All were bo contldent of
success thut the sweeping republican vic
tory camo as a severe shock. Even on the
evening of tho day before election reas.r.ir
Ing telegrams came from leaders that New
York was safe for Bryan and from leuders
hi other pivotal Htatra thnt the democrats
were sure to win, It was these forecasts
which bujyed us ui to the lust moment
and made tho actual result more startling.
But Mr. Bryan Is a great man. one of the
greatest In America today, und his Influ
ence will bo felt for many years to come
In American politics. Ho Is a giant In In
tellect and simply Indefatigable In tho
prosecution of u. campaign. Whether ho
will bo 11 cnndldato for tlio presidency In
the near future remains to bo sran. but It
Is not probable that ho will. It l.i more
reasonable to presume inai 110 woum uo
cllno thu nomination, even should It bo
offered to htm.
lleorinuilratlon? Oh. that's nil nonsense.
There's nothing In It. and It will blow over
in tlilrty uuys. it is precipitated uy inoso
who deserted tho party and gave uJd and
comfort to the enemy and docs not rep
rerent tho strength or the spirit of U10
gcnulno democracy. What they would do
Is to adopt all tho policies of tho repub
lican party and be democrats only In
name. Bat granting that there In cause
or reason for no-called reorganization, who
has tho power within Iho party to do It
now? Not tho disgruntled dlsorganlzcrs
who havo raised thu Issue. If there Is to
bo a reorganization of tho national com
mllteo or platform It cannot lie dono for
four years, or until the next national con
vention. , , , .
As to tho Issues, that must depend largely
upon tho national nnd Internal develop
ments of tho next four yearn.
It may bo said primarily, however, that
tho democratic party will never vary from
Its established fundamentulB. 11 Htrlct con
rtructlon of the constitution and nn un

nn economically administered government

question may nolvo Itself. Should tho
amount of gold produced bo ample, to
maintain a mifflcient volume of metallic
money nnd Insuro the stability of prices,
tho silver question will be subordinated;
but should tho supply fall short of tho de
mands of trade, the silver question will bo
mado prominent. Tho question of imperi

down to nine knots. At times the seas

tho ICth, at 8 p. m ono blado of tho port

obliged to slow down tho engines. This,
with tho successive gales, reduced tho dally

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Nov. 22. Ellis H.
Roberts, treasurer of tho United Statos,
spoke before the Indiana Bankers' associa
tion today. Mr- Roberta took for hlB Bub
Ject, "The Parity of Our Currency," and
spoko In part as follows:
"The parity of our currency requires an
equality of nil kinds with gold. Ono potent
factor Is that JS37.367.232, 39.H3 per cent
of all our circulation, Is In gold and Its
certificates. Even 'more significant Is the
fact that an Increase of J75.122.9S0 has taken
placo In this, kind of money In circulation
during the year since November 1, 1803, In
tho gross gold, tho addition In tho samo
unequalled until this date. Beyond theao
period has been even more, reaching $88,
07C340 and a total -of $167,892,655, a record
enonnous treasures other guarantees of
parity arc provided.
Against the remote danger that tho rev
enue should fall below tho outlay, Mr.
Roberts said, a safeguard has been set up
In tho provision that In case tho gold re
serve should be reduced below $100,000,000,
3 per cent' -ponds shall bo sold to restore
It to the full sum of $160,000,000, The key

PROSPERITY IN IRON TRADE
Steady Flow of Orders Coming; - to
Mills from All Quartern
Contrnctlnir for Hulls.
CLEVELAND, Nov. 22. Tho Iron Trado
Review this week will say: Ono of tho
surest Indications of tho wave of prosperity
that has bocn sweeping through tho Iron
trade In the past three weeks la the gen
eral deprecation of anything like n boom.
The stream of orders has been so steady
from every quarter recently as to suggest
the danger that last year's excitement
might bo repeated. Strong us tho situa
tion Is from every point of view, It docs not
appear as yet that the mistakes ot 1899
will be repeated. The tlmo of year Is
against such repetition; producing capacity
is ample for all probable needs, and for
eign Iron markets are receding, so that
the outflow of export Bteel Is likely to be
checked.
The past week has given added cvldonce
of healthy activity in all districts and In
all lines of production. After several
weeks of comparative quiet tho steel rail
market took on new life, Pittsburg and
Chicago, between them, booking 150,000 to
200,000 tons of rails. Including a largo order
from the Cblcaco, Burlington & Qulncy
railroad, of which Pittsburg secured 70,000
tona. It Is probable that 750,000 tons of
rails have now been booked for 1901 de
livery, and It Is known that large addi
tional orders will bo placed In tho next
few weeks. '
